SIP routing rules collection

Route rules enable an administrator to direct Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) traffic to a specific cluster when there is more than one cluster running SIP applications in a WAS Network Deployment cell.

Route rules are not needed in cases where there is one cluster running SIP. Rules are only applied to the initial message of a SIP conversation and not all SIP traffic. To view this console page, click Servers > Server Types > WebSphere proxy servers > proxy_server_name > SIP proxy settings > Routing rules.

The order column represents the order in which the rules are evaluated. This is critical since a SIP message may match more than one rule.

A concatenation of the list of conditions associated with the rule. Condition is not sorted.

Enabled/Disabled
